Facebook removes more Myanmar accounts

Facebook has said it pulled down more than 200 accounts, groups and pages from Myanmar for misleading users about their identity and purpose, C|NET reported.

It's the fourth network of fake accounts in Myanmar that Facebook identified this year. The social media giant said it linked some of these accounts to people associated with the Myanmar military. Some of the Facebook pages that the social network pulled down included the Myanmar Media Watch, Myanmar Muslim News and the Ethnic Regional News. The accounts posted about national and local topics, from crime and ethnic relations to entertainment and the military.
